​​​Émile Germain, Montmartre 1898

Picture
Picture
Picture
Emile Germain (b. 1853, d. 1933) was born in Paris but like many of the fine makers of his time, trained in Mirecourt. He took over his father's shop in 1870 and won a medal at the Paris Exhibition in 1900. This instrument displays first-class materials and a rich dark-red varnish. Its tone is deep, rich and mature with plenty of muscularity to carry it through the hall. This instrument would be perfect for a professional violinist looking for a versatile companion.
